Assignment #8 J.Mikles

Harold Meyerson is an outspoken writer for the Washington Post and several other newspapers and magazines. He has appeared on many t.v. shows and talk radio shows supporting Obama and the decisions that Barrack has made during his presidency.
In his article entitled "It's not about socialism, it's about rescuing capitalism," he makes a sarcastic attempt to defend himself and fellow politicians who are in support of the stimulus package and against the way things were going in Washington. He goes on to explain that Obama didn't wanted to take such drastic steps toward socialism, it is just what he felt needed to be done to fix the problems in our capitalist system and that he only conspirators behind the movement are ourselves.
